HE’S WHERE? Righthander Parker Frazier and outfielder Kent Matthes hope to take a step up to Triple-A in 2013, but both will begin the season back with Double-A Tulsa, where they toiled last year. In their first tour of the Texas League, Matthes hit .214/.273/.432 while Frazier went 5-14, 3.88.

WHO’S MISSING:Rafael Ortega, one of the Rockies’ better outfield prospects, has been sidelined with a staph infection to start the year. He should be ticketed for Tulsa once healthy. Lefty Jayson Aquino didn’t make a full-season roster but the 20-year-old should get to low Class A Asheville at some point.

GO SEE: Rockies top prospect Nolan Arenado hit .278/.278/.574 with four homers in the Cactus League and came tantalizingly close to making the Rockies’ big league roster. Instead, he’ll head to Triple-A Colorado Springs, where he’ll be joined by outfielder Tim Wheeler and offseason trade acquisition Ryan Wheeler (no relation). With those bats in the lineup and a hitter’s haven of a home park, expect plenty of fireworks.
